Bear Story.

On the train crossing the Rocky
Mountains 1 heard a teamster tell about
mother bear and her cub, giving a
good example to human mothers in
family government. This man was 90.
ing up the mountain for pine logs,
driving a wagon. On the top of a
large rock by the side of the road was
young bear, the mother having start
ed up the mountain on the approach OF
the team. "The cub looked so cute"
said the teamster, ''lying there with its
paws dropping over the edge Of the
rock, watching the horses as they came
up. Presently the old bear came
bounding back to the cub, and, giving
it nudge with her nose, started up the
mountain again expecting the young
one to follow. But the cub made no
move. The older bear then came back
the second time, and, taking up the
cub in her arms, gave him several cuffs.
This time the cub obeyed orders, and
followed the old bear in gallop up the
side of the mountain. Our Dumb

There is a suburban church, situated

makes q practice, generally on Sunday,
after the Sunday-school services, Of
distributing the greater part Of the

street children as is the Christmas
distribution Of gifts and confec-
tionery. sItz y<@ s5sss.@...> 81.
One Sunday recently, after the mass
of the children had been given a few
